    CALIFORNIA INSTITUTE OF TECHNOLOGY

    August 15, 1950

    To David Shoemaker

    Subject : Nickel-zinc system

    Perhaps it would be worth while to have Dr. Waugh make a preparation of Ni2Zn15 or Ni3Zn22, the epsilon phase of the nickel-zinc system, described on page 967 of Hansen,

    I have predicted a structure for this phase, and I would like to see what the powler photographs look like.
